Marcelo, 50 years old, has dedicated his life to teaching philosophy at the Public University and suddenly his mentor and boss, Professor Caselli, dies. Disoriented in this new landscape, Marcelo assumes that he will inherit the position left vacant by his mentor. What he doesn't expect is that Rafael Sujarchuk, a charismatic and pedantic philosopher trained in the best European universities, also covets the position. Between his multiple jobs as a philosophy professor in the local slums, at the university and privately with an 80-year-old millionaire, he must also prepare to run for office against this strong opponent who seems to have everyone on his side. Marcelo's clumsy efforts don't seem to be enough to get the job, but is that really what he wants?

지도자를 잃고 혼돈을 겪었던 1835년 아르헨티나가 배경이다. 특히 광활한 사막은 무법지대나 다름없었고, 군부 잔당들은 이곳에서 피비린내 나는 세력다툼을 벌이며 경쟁하듯 폭력을 행사했다. 야심찬 세뇨르 역시 두 부관과 함께 남부 지역 팜파스로 자신의 거점을 옮겨 새로운 정치공동체를 만드는 실험에 착수한다. 이들은 농부와 마을 주민들에게 자신을 따를 것을 강요하고, 협박하고, 심지어 죽이기도 한다. 세뇨르는 자신의 행동이 국가적 결집을 위한 필요악이며 정치 정화 운동이라고 주장하며 공포스러운 독재자로 거듭난다.

- 1879. One thousand five hundred men walk in the desert under the orders of General Roca. They are going to build the space of the Argentine nation.
